Covering the Sky: I, Wang Teng, truly lack the bearing of an emperor.

Chapter 37 Challenge to the Holy Son of Yao Guang
"I would have liked to go and see, but I was in a hurry to find an old friend, so I missed it," Wang Teng said calmly.

He couldn't be bothered to admit it.

It involves too much. The Demon Emperor's Imperial Weapon has been revealed. Even if there is no so-called Eastern Wilderness Human Race's supreme treasure in it, the holy land families will probably suspect that the person who teleported away from the Demon Emperor's tomb took away the strongest opportunity.

Both the Daoist Scripture and the Desolate Tower, the supreme treasure of the Eastern Wilderness human race, would cause a sensation in the Eastern Wilderness if revealed. Therefore, when Wang Teng passed on the Daoist Scripture to the members of the Wang family, he made them swear an oath and added the mark of an imperial weapon before he felt at ease passing on those things.

So this whole thing is just a mess.

If he doesn't admit it, even ancient families and holy lands can't do anything to him. At most, they can only test him, and there's nothing else they can do, given his status.

But if he admitted it, the problem would be huge. Wang Teng wasn't afraid of trouble, but he was too lazy to get involved in unnecessary trouble.

He was just watching the show; Ye Fan took all the real stuff, so what did it have to do with him?
"Seeking friends?" an elder from the Yao Guang Holy Land asked in confusion.

“Those are the Jiang family members I just saw off.” Wang Teng said without changing his expression.

Putting aside whether the Yao Guang Holy Land would seek to verify with the Jiang family based on a mere guess, even if they did, Wang Teng believed that Jiang Yunshan and the others would help him clear his name.

"I see. I apologize. I was overthinking things and mistakenly thought that what happened in the Demon Emperor's Tomb was related to you, young friend." The elder of Yao Guang Holy Land immediately spoke up with a smile.

"What happened at the Demon Emperor's tomb? I heard that the Demon Emperor's imperial weapon was taken away by the Demon Emperor's descendants. What about the other things?" Wang Teng asked, seizing the opportunity.

The elder of Yaoguang Holy Land gave Wang Teng a deep look, then slowly began to recount what had happened in the Demon Emperor's Tomb in the past few days.

When he had finished speaking, the two of them arrived at a grand hall in the Yao Guang Holy Land, where the Holy Son of Yao Guang was personally waiting.

"I have been waiting here for Brother Wang for a long time." The Holy Son of Yaoguang spoke, his smile radiant. Behind him, divine halos shone brightly, layer upon layer, their light dazzling like a sun shining in the sky.

"Brother Yaoguang, I've long admired your name. Meeting you today, I can confirm your extraordinary abilities," Wang Teng said with a smile.

He didn't deliberately show off his extraordinary appearance, because he was already exceptionally handsome. Even if he did nothing but stand there, he would stand out from the crowd.

When he was living in his original identity, Wang Teng never thought about keeping a low profile.

If you keep a low profile for too long, you might get crushed by someone and no one will even know where you are.

When it's time to shine, you still have to show your extraordinary qualities.

"Although the Eastern Wilderness and the Northern Plains are far apart, I have long heard of your great name, Brother Wang. Knowing that you have made sweeping reforms to the younger generation of the Wang family, I am filled with longing and hope to visit you in the Northern Plains." Yao Guang Holy Son spoke, revealing his snow-white teeth. He always had a smile on his face, which made people feel like they were bathed in a spring breeze.

"I've also heard that the Holy Son of Yao Guang is invincible among the younger generation. Once he unleashes his Holy Light Technique, no one in his generation can stop him. Unfortunately, I'm far behind. I only have the Dao Palace Secret Realm so far, and I can only look up to Brother Yao Guang's figure." Wang Teng also smiled and began to praise the Holy Son of Yao Guang.

The two hit it off immediately and chatted for a long time in the main hall, mostly about Wang Teng's governance of the younger generation of the Wang family.

Since the two were not familiar with each other and this was their first meeting, this was the only way to start.

Then, it leads to spiritual practice.

"I've heard that you had many extraordinary encounters in your childhood, including being taught magic by a crane. Is that true or not?" Yao Guang Holy Son asked tentatively.

Wang Teng smiled, "It's hard to distinguish between truth and falsehood, but there's definitely some exaggeration from the outside world. Beiyuan is, after all, quite barren. It's a rare talent like me, barely passable, so they tell stories of my imperial bearing and the transmission of magic by cranes, trying to enrich my life experience. In reality, they mostly want to improve my reputation and make me comparable to the geniuses of other regions." "Ultimately, if your strength isn't enough, this is the only way," Wang Teng said humbly.

He knew roughly what Yao Guang Sheng Zi's personality was like, so when he spoke like this, it wouldn't make Yao Guang Sheng Zi look down on him; on the contrary, it would arouse Yao Guang Sheng Zi's curiosity.

He really wanted to fight the Holy Son of Yaoguang, but it wouldn't be appropriate for him to initiate a fight on Yaoguang's territory, so he could only seduce him.

Sure enough, the Holy Son of Yaoguang looked at him with eager anticipation.

“Brother Wang is too modest. If there is no wind, how can there be waves?” said the Holy Son of Yaoguang, his eyes fixed intently on Wang Teng.

At that moment, the halo behind him shone even brighter.

"In the end, I am not as good as the geniuses of the Eastern Wilderness. I haven't even reached the end of the Dao Palace Secret Realm yet. Even with the support of a false reputation, when I really encounter a true genius like Brother Yaoguang, the difference is too great. Just in terms of cultivation level, there is a whole major realm difference. If we really fought, I would definitely be suppressed instantly." Wang Teng said humbly.

Facing the Holy Son of Yaoguang, Wang Teng displayed a humility he didn't usually show, repeatedly saying that he was inferior to the Holy Son of Yaoguang.

"But what if their cultivation levels are equal?" Yao Guang Holy Son asked.

really!

Wang Teng remained unfazed. "Perhaps, we can give it a try?"

The elders of the Yao Guang Holy Land did not stop this scene. It is normal for the younger generation to have some sparring. The Holy Son of Yao Guang had previously had private sparring with people from other holy land families, but it was not spread.

"Then... let's give it a try?" Yao Guang Holy Son was eager to try.

He knew almost all the powerful young people in the Eastern Wilderness, except for those who were well hidden.

However, he had not yet come into contact with the prodigies of Beiyuan.

"Give it a try?" Wang Teng was also eager to try. "I also want to see how big the gap is between me and the top geniuses of the Eastern Wilderness."

"Then I will suppress my cultivation level and fight you in the Dao Palace Secret Realm?" Yao Guang Saint asked. He was already a cultivator of the Four Extremes Secret Realm. If he wanted a fair fight, he could only suppress his cultivation level.

The two were eager to try and reached a consensus at that moment.

The elders of the Yao Guang Holy Land summoned several of its Supreme Elders to set up array patterns in the main hall, gathering "power" to prevent the two from damaging the hall during their battle, and also to prevent the battle's fluctuations from leaking out and becoming known to outsiders as a duel between the Holy Son's successors.

This is also a common practice among the various holy sites, and their successors also spar in this way when they exchange skills in private.

“Originally, this battle should have been presided over by the Holy Lord himself, but such a great event has occurred at the Demon Emperor’s Tomb, and the Holy Lord is not in the Holy Land at the moment, so we can only preside over it. Please forgive us, young friend.”

The Supreme Elder of the Yao Guang Holy Land spoke up and personally took action to suppress the Yao Guang Holy Son's realm.

Both of their aura fluctuations remained at the fourth level of the Dao Palace, at the same level.

The two men stood several feet apart, exchanged a glance, and their eyes were filled with fighting spirit.
